Calcium formate is shown to be more readily absorbed form of calcium than calcium carbonate and calcium citrate. [7] No optic nerve damage has been observed with calcium formate supplementation – along with formaldehyde , formate is a major metabolic product of methanol , which can cause blindness upon ingestion.
Calcium citrate is recommended for patients with achlorhydria and those on medications that decrease stomach acidity. While calcium carbonate is the most common and least expensive form of calcium and contains 40% of elemental calcium, calcium citrate supplements contain only 21% calcium, requiring more tablets for equivalent dosage.
In the table above, magnesium appears to be an anomaly as the recommended intake for adult men is 420 mg/day (women 350 mg/day) while the UL is lower than the recommended, at 350 mg. The reason is that the UL is specific to consuming more than 350 mg of magnesium all at once, in the form of a dietary supplement, as this may cause diarrhea.
Typical chemicals used for acceleration today are calcium nitrate (Ca(NO 3) 2), calcium nitrite (Ca(NO 2) 2), calcium formate (Ca(HCOO) 2) and aluminium compounds. Calcium chloride (CaCl 2) is the most efficient and least expensive accelerator [4] and was formerly very popular.
Formate (IUPAC name: methanoate) is the conjugate base of formic acid. Formate is an anion ( HCO − 2 ) or its derivatives such as ester of formic acid . The salts and esters are generally colorless.

Calcium-alpha-ketoglutarate (C 5 H 4 CaO 5 •H 2 O) is a special form mineral calcium that can be used to restore calcium concentration level in the blood back to normal. Calcium-alpha-ketoglutarate binds excess phosphate and pass it as a waste, re-establishing normal balance of calcium and phosphate in the body.
According to the Nickel–Strunz classification, calclacite is an organic acid salt and occurs with formicaite (calcium formate), acetamide, dashkovaite (magnesium acetate), paceite (calcium copper acetate) and hoganite (copper acetate). [2] It is white and its hardness on the Mohs scale is 1.5.
